Ingram allowed four goals on 37 shots in a 5-3 loss to the Avalanche in Monday's Game 4. The fifth goal was an empty-netter.

EDGE Analysis

Ingram couldn't make a 3-2 lead stick over the last 16:02 of the third period. The 25-year-old allowed 14 goals across three starts and a relief appearance, as the Avalanche's powerful offense was just too overwhelming to contend with. He's strengthened his case to serve as the Predators' backup behind Juuse Saros (lower body) next season, especially if David Rittich is allowed to walk in free agency.

Ingram will be in goal at home versus Colorado on Monday for Game 4, Brooks Bratten of the Predators' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Ingram has faced a barrage of rubber in three postseason appearances in which he stopped 114 of 124 shots (.919 save percentage). Despite being unable to earn his club a victory, the Preds will continue to roll with the 25-year-old youngster, who will be looking to stave off a sweep at the hands of Colorado.

Ingram made 35 saves Saturday in a 7-3 loss to Colorado in Game 3 of the Western Conference First Round. He allowed six goals.

EDGE Analysis

The game was close until the mid-point of the second period. At 12:54 of that frame, Roman Josi knotted the score at 3-3, but the ice tilted hard and fast at Ingram's net. Gabriel Landeskog scored at 14:02 and then at 14:41, Nazem Kadri received a gift from Ingram, who passed the puck from behind the net straight to the Avs' pivot. Devon Toews wired a slap shot from the top of the left circle at 9:33 of the third period to push the score to 6-3. Ingram is the first rookie goalie to start a playoff game for the Preds and has performed remarkably well against the high-flying Avs.

Ingram will guard the home goal during Saturday's Game 3 versus Colorado, Brooks Bratten of the Predators' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Ingram was fantastic in Thursday's Game 2 against the Avalanche, stopping 49 of 51 shots, but it wasn't enough, as the Predators ultimately fell to Colorado by a score of 2-1 in overtime. The 25-year-old netminder will try to help Nashville avoid falling into a 3-0 series hole by shooting for his first career NHL playoff win in a rematch with the same high-powered Avs squad Friday.

Ingram stopped 49 of 51 shots in Thursday's 2-1 overtime loss to the Avalanche in Game 2.

EDGE Analysis

Ingram got the nod after a solid relief appearance Tuesday. He was even sharper this time around, but the Predators' offense couldn't find a difference-making tally before Cale Makar scored in overtime. Ingram has allowed just four goals on 84 shots in his two postseason appearances, and he should be considered the favorite to start Saturday's Game 3 back home in Nashville.

Ingram will guard the road goal during Thursday's Game 2 versus the Avalanche.

EDGE Analysis

Ingram played well after relieving David Rittich in the first period of Game 1 against Colorado on Tuesday, stopping 30 of 32 shots in the eventual 7-2 loss. The 25-year-old rookie will try to earn his first career NHL playoff victory in a tough road rematch with the same Avalanche squad Thursday.

Ingram allowed two goals on 32 shots in relief of David Rittich during a 7-2 loss to the Avalanche in Tuesday's Game 1.

EDGE Analysis

By the time Ingram entered the contest, the Avalanche already had a five-goal lead, and they were never in danger of losing it. The 25-year-old's solid performance raises some questions as to which goalie the Predators will start in Thursday's Game 2. Ingram has just four appearances to his name at the NHL level, so he would be a shaky DFS option at best against a tough opponent if he gets the nod.

Ingram allowed five goals on 27 shots in Friday's 5-4 loss to the Coyotes.

EDGE Analysis

After the Predators took a 4-0 lead 6:57 into the game, Ingram should have had this one in the bag. Instead, he surrendered five unanswered goals to the Coyotes, and the Predators couldn't pull even. Combined with the Stars' regulation win over the Ducks, the Predators are now set to face the Avalanche in the first round of the playoffs. Ingram will likely serve as backup to David Rittich for that series, which starts Tuesday in Denver. Ingram went 1-2-0 with 11 goals allowed on 91 shots in three appearances at the NHL level this season.

Ingram is on track to start between the pipes in Friday's road game against Arizona, John Glennon of BroadwaySportsMedia.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Ingram wasn't great in his last NHL appearance Nov. 3 against the Oilers, surrendering four goals on just 29 shots en route to a 5-2 loss. He'll try to shake off the rust and pick up his second top-level win of the season in a favorable road matchup with a Coyotes team that's 10-27-3 at home this year.

Ingram was promoted from AHL Milwaukee on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Juuse Saros exited Tuesday's loss to the Flames with a lower-body injury, so Ingram will likely be in the lineup for Thursday's game versus Colorado at a minimum. Ingram's gone 1-1-0 while posting a 3.03 GAA and a .906 save percentage through two top-level appearances this year.
